Facts & Tips

Betting facts from Caulfield, Saturday, 27th. March.

Punters backing favourites had a small winning day with an outlay of nine units and a return of 10.9 units at top fluctuation odds on the three winning favourites. The three winning favourites were Curtana, ridden by Craig Newitt and trained by Peter G Moody. It was solidly backed from $3.10 to start at $2.70. Red Flair, ridden by Jordan Mallyon and trained by Mathew Ellerton & Simon Zahra firmed from $3.40 to start at $3.30 while equal favourite Above Average was backed from $4.40 to $3.90. Above Average was ridden by Dwayne Dunn and trained by Lee Freedman. It was an excellent training feat, as Above Average, was first up over 1600 metres from a long spell of 161 days. Dwayne Dunn also won in R1 on the Lee Freedman trained Savarain which started at $4.40. The jockey and trainer combination of Jason Maskiell and Mick Price saddled up two losing favourites - About Ready $1.75 in R3 and Luminous Harmony $2.45 in R8. Punters trying to get out on Luminous Harmony were none too pleased when the $20.00 outsider Perfect Hostess, ridden by Jarrod Fry and trained by Rodney Douglas won the race. Perfect Hostess paid tote odds up to $25.20. To top it off, Jason Maskiell in R5 rode the $3.30 Brendan McCarthy trained losing favourite, Zedi Knight. With three losing favourites from three rides you could say that Jason Maskiell wasn't favourite punters most popular jockey after Saturday. Especially considering he had a win on the David Hayes trained Chartreux, which started at $7.00.
